Using Symphony Math® with Clever’s Instant Login™

Overview Symphony Math® is a three-step program that identifies and supports students who need help with

math. The Clever Instant Login™ portal allows students to use one sign-in to access many different

software programs. This document details the process for initiating the integration between these

technologies. By following the procedures in this document, your students will be able to use Symphony

Math by simply choosing the program from a menu, without needing to remember their specific

Symphony Math username or password.

The steps for the entire process are as follows:

1. Sign up for Clever (free).

2. Import student SIS IDs into the Symphony district or school roster.

3. From your Clever login, add Symphony Math as an application.

4. Deploy the Symphony Math application to your students.

Step 1: Sign up for Clever

Your district can sign up for the free Clever service at https://clever.com . Please note that this service

securely accesses your Student Information System (SIS), and so you will need the assistance and

permission of a district administrator in order to complete your sign up.

Step 2: Import student SIS IDs into the Symphony district or school roster. Symphony Math does not support Clever’s Secure Sync service. However, batch imports of student roster

information can be performed by using the ‘Import Students’ tool:

Sign in to the Symphony Administration Panel at adminpanel.symphonylearning.com .

From the Dashboard, press Students to see the existing student roster.

Press Import Students, and prepare your Import file. There are two important considerations for

preparing this file:

1) Preserve your existing usernames of students if you wish to continue to use their records; and

2) Put students’ district SIS number in the ExternalID field.

Upload your completed Import CSV file and complete the import process.

!* Put the students’ SIS ID numbers in the ‘ExternalID’ field in the import template. This is mandatory, as this

information will enable the link between the Clever and Symphony systems.

** If you have existing students in your Symphony roster, use the same usernames in your import file. When the

import process begins, these student accounts will be UPDATED, and no student records or progress will be lost.

Step 3: From your Clever login, add Symphony Math as an application. When you log in to clever.com as an administrator, you can view your district’s applications. Press ‘Add

App’ to add an application, then find and press the Symphony Math app.

After adding the application, you will need to authorize access from Symphony Learning to your district

information. Symphony Learning has a strict privacy policy, and all transactions that occur between

Clever and Symphony Math will be fully encrypted and never exposed to the public. For a full description

of our privacy policy, go to http://symphonylearning.com/research/policies/privacy-policy/ .

Adding Symphony Math to your district requires acceptance by both Symphony Learning and your

district. You will receive email correspondences from Clever that alert you when an action is necessary

during the acceptance process. Hang in there: after a few back-and-forth communications you won’t need

to make any further changes!

Step 4: Deploy the Symphony Math application to your students. After acceptance by both your district and Symphony Learning, you’ll need to set permissions that guide

which schools and/or sections are allowed to access the program:

Make your choices on permissions, and then press Save Changes. Now, when a student signs in and has

your permission to access Symphony Math, they will see the Symphony Math icon:

Pressing the Symphony Math icon starts the Symphony Math program, and automatically signs the

student in and preserves their settings and progress. Enjoy!
